Research tip: use Ancestry more effectively

Maybe you've seen the sign. It's like one I recall in the training section at the Meteorological Service of Canada in Toronto, long closed down.

I think about it from time to time as I struggle up seemingly interminable learning curves with new software and web applications.

Ancestry web sites are no exception. Investing a bit of time in training is the answer, and Ancestry has a very recent free webinar to help. "Getting the Most Out of Your Ancestry.com Subscription" was presented live on April 8. View the archived version on demand by going to ancestry.com and finding the link under Learning Center. You'll have register and put up with some company PR but there's good content worth the time taken to view it.
